Summer Break
Today officially ends our summer break as we start back to school this
morning. We are beginning our tenth year of homeschool. Cruz will be
in 9th grade and Ben will be in 7th. Pray that our year gets off to a
fantastic start.
With
that being said, we are wrapping up a summer break filled with travel.
We began with a work trip to Brazil back in mid-May. The boys attended
a local week long summer camp for Guatemala missionary kids. David
traveled to London to a Digital Engagement training. We spent a month
in the U.S. visiting family and friends. We spent a week in Mexico
attending a marriage conference and training with other IMB
missionaries. We ended the month hosting our supervisor and his family
and showing them around Guatemala. The summer was busy but most
definitely fun filled!

Team Guatemala
A highlight of our time in Mexico was having our Guatemala IMB Team all
together for the first time. It was great to sit around the table and
fellowship in person.
The Englishes will finish language school in a few more weeks and make their official move to Guatemala in mid-September.
Pray for them as they finalize things in Mexico and prepare to move.
Pray for us as we look for housing and make arrangements to receive
them.
We are thankful for the team that God has put together to serve here in
Guatemala. In addition to the adults, we will have a total of nine IMB
missionary kids with ages ranging from seven months to fourteen years old.
Celebrating Lauren
We had an End of Term celebration meal for our Journeyman Lauren. Her
term of service with the IMB ended in late July. Pray for her and her
future plans.

Coming Up
We are currently working to finalize plans to host a volunteer team from The Church at LifePark in Mount Pleasant, SC. They will arrive at the end of the month and will be doing a medical clinic in a local town.
Pray for all the details and logistics to come together. Pray for their
hearts as they prepare to come and serve and pray for the hearts of the
people that they will be ministering to and sharing the gospel with.
Watch this video to learn more about The Great Pursuit and pray about what part you can play in it.
As you watch, look for David at 0:31 and Regina at 1:32.
Your prayers are powerful.

Guatemala
has thirty-seven volcanoes. Only three of them are active. We can see
three volcanoes from our house in Antigua- Agua, Fuego, and Acatenango.
Here is a beautiful sunset view of Agua volcano from our patio.
